Cupcake Handbags

When I first saw this card on my up-lines display, I just loved it and couldn’t wait to make it! It so cleverly uses the Create a Cupcake stamp set and Cupcake Builder punch by rotating the ‘cake case’ 180 degrees for the main part of the handbags.  The handles are semi-circles made from a ¾” circle and ½” circle punches.  Semi circles are also used to create the ‘flap’ of the handbag. This colour combination used here is Pretty in Pink, Wisteria Wonder, Concord Crush (2010-2012 In Colour now retired) and Whisper White.  But any contrasting colour combination can be used.  The greeting also comes from the Create a Cupcake punched out with the modern label punch, backed by a pretty in pink scallop oval and set off with two mini brads. The large sized pearl acting as the handbag’s clasp sets off the Perfect Polka Dots embossed background.

A lovely card for anyone with a passion for handbags!
